A specialist standing frame for Mukesh: help Mukesh move freely
A specialist standing frame would give Mukesh independence - we're $150 away.
🇮🇳 Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India906 views
Mukesh lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Coimbatore Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $150.
His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Mukesh could attend work interviews. It would change everyday life for the whole family.
We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $150 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $65
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $60
Thanks for reading all this.

Thinking of you, Rajesh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
